Abstract

A design review device includes a communicator, a display controller, and a capturer. The communicator accesses a data server storing data for a 3D model of a component included in a product, data for a 3D model of a tool to be used in assembling the product, and data for a review sheet including a design review result for the product. The display controller displays a screen for selecting at least one of the 3D model of the component or the 3D model of the tool in a virtual space. The capturer detects a user action and selects, in response to the user action, at least one of the 3D model of the component or the 3D model of the tool displayed in the virtual space.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A design review device comprising:
 a communicator to access a data server storing data for a 3D model of a component included in a product, data for a 3D model of a tool to be used in assembling the product, and data for a review sheet including a design review result for the product;   a display controller to display in a virtual space a screen for selecting at least one of the 3D model of the component or the 3D model of the tool; and   a capturer to detect a user action and select, in response to the user action, the at least one of the 3D model of the component or the 3D model of the tool displayed in the virtual space,   wherein the display controller displays a format of the review sheet in the virtual space, and   the capturer detects a writing motion of a stylus on the review sheet and stores data representing the written review result into the review sheet in response to the writing motion of the stylus.   
     
     
         2 . The design review device according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a model operator to display in the virtual space the at least one of the 3D model of the component or the 3D model of the tool selected by the capturer, detect a user action of moving and rotating the at least one of the 3D model of the component or the 3D model of the tool detected by the capturer and displayed in the virtual space, and move or rotate, in response to the user action, the at least one of the 3D model of the component or the 3D model of the tool displayed in the virtual space within a range of no mutual contact.   
     
     
         3 . The design review device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the display controller displays the at least one of the 3D model of the component or the 3D model of the tool in the virtual space in a scrollable manner, and   the capturer detects a user action and scrolls, in response to the user action, the at least one of the 3D model of the component or the 3D model of the tool displayed in the virtual space to select the at least one of the 3D model of the component as a target or the 3D model of the tool as a target.   
     
     
         4 . The design review device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the display controller displays a format of the review sheet in the virtual space, and   the capturer detects a writing motion of a stylus on the review sheet, captures handwriting in response to the writing motion of the stylus, converts data for the handwriting to text data, and stores the text data into the review sheet.   
     
     
         5 . The design review device according to  claim 4 , wherein
 the capturer detects a language for the handwriting and stores the language for the handwriting into the review sheet.   
     
     
         6 . The design review device according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a head mount display to display the virtual space in accordance with a position and an orientation of a head of the user,   wherein the display controller displays on the head mount display at least one of the 3D model of the component, the 3D model of the tool, or the format of the review sheet.   
     
     
         7 . The design review device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the capturer detects a position and an orientation of the tool placed in a real space, and the display controller displays the 3D model of the tool in a manner superimposed on the tool detected by the capturer.   
     
     
         8 . A design review method comprising:
 a communication step of accessing a data server storing data for a 3D model of a component included in a product, data for a 3D model of a tool to be used in assembling the product, and data for a review sheet including a design review result for the product;   a displaying step of displaying in a virtual space a screen for selecting at least one of the 3D model of the component or the 3D model of the tool; and   a capturing step of detecting a user action and selecting, in response to the user action, the at least one of the 3D model of the component or the 3D model of the tool displayed in the virtual space, and   wherein the design review method further includes:
 in the displaying step, displaying a format of the review sheet in the virtual space, and 
 in the capturing step, detecting a writing motion of a stylus on the review sheet and storing data representing the written review result into the review sheet in response to the writing motion of the stylus. 
   
     
     
         9 . The design review method according to  claim 8 , wherein
 the communication step includes accessing a design review device installed in another facility and performing the design review in collaboration with the design review device installed in the another facility.   
     
     
         10 . (canceled) 
     
     
         11 . A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a program for causing a computer including a communicator to access a data server storing data for a 3D model of a component included in a product, data for a 3D model of a tool to be used in assembling the product, and data for a review sheet including a design review result for the product, to function as:
 a display controller to display in a virtual space a screen for selecting at least one of the 3D model of the component or the 3D model of the tool; and   a capturer to detect a user action and select, in response to the user action, the at least one of the 3D model of the component or the 3D model of the tool displayed in the virtual space, and   wherein the display controller displays a format of the review sheet in the virtual space, and   the capturer detects a writing motion of a stylus on the review sheet and stores data representing the written review result into the review sheet in response to the writing motion of the stylus.
